Mozart’s ‘gimme back my quartet’ note sells for $217,000
mainA letter from Mozart to a friend, the botanist Nikolaus, Joseph von Jacquin, asking him to return three scores, has gone for more than twice the estimate in a Boston online auction.
Mozart wrote: ‘I ask you to send me back with the bearer of this, the Quartet in G minor, the Sonata in E flat and the new Trio in G.’
Anyone know if he got them back?
